Abstract

Apparatus for loading and unloading a firing table arrangement with product for firing, wherein the firing table arrangement comprises on at least one horizontal plane a plurality of rollers having ends disposed at a distance from one another for picking up the product for firing, comprises a supporting structure (20), aligned relative to the firing table arrangement, with two horizontally projecting supporting arms (24) each of them running traversely relative to the rollers, laterally outside the firing table arrangement which are accommodated on the supporting structure (20) so as to be adjustable in height, said supporting arms having inner sides facing one another and a front end, a drive member (26) disposed on the inner side of one supporting arm (24) which, after coupling to the rollers of the firing table arrangement, set them in a rotating movement, and a device disposed on the inner side of the other supporting arm for the rotatable guiding of the rollers of the firing table arrangement. The apparatus may also include a drive member on both supporting arms for coupling to the rollers of the firing table arrangement to set them in rotating motion. The apparatus may also i…
